Not A Single Penny Found During ED Raid: Sunita Kejriwal

Sunita Kejriwal, wife of jailed Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said that her husband will reveal the truth regarding the Delhi excise policy case in court on 28 March.

In a video message, Sunita stated that ED did not recover any money from their residence.

She said, “In the so-called liquor scam, ED has conducted more than 250 raids. They are searching for the money of this so-called scam. They have found nothing yet. Arvind Kejriwal has said that he will reveal everything in court on 28 March. He will reveal where the money of the liquor scam is. He will also provide proof.”

She further said that the ED did not recover any money from the residences of other jailed AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Satyendra Jain either.

Her revelation came hours after she met the Delhi CM on Tuesday evening at the ED office.

She further said, “I met Arvind Kejriwal in jail yesterday. His diabetes and sugar level is not under control. However, his determination is strong.”

“Two days ago, he directed Delhi Minister Atishi to resolve the water and sewer-related issues. What wrong did he do? The Centre has filed a case against Arvind Kejriwal even for this. Do they want to finish Delhi?” she added.

Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on 21 March in connection with Delhi Liquor Policy case. Next day, the trial court had remanded him to ED custody until 28 March.

The case relates to alleged irregularities and money laundering in the formulation and execution of the Delhi excise policy in 2022.

In its initial prosecution complaint filed in November 2021, the ED stated that the policy was intentionally designed with loopholes, facilitating the formation of cartels clandestinely to favor Aam Aadmi Party leaders.

Additionally, the ED accused AAP leaders of receiving kickbacks from a group of individuals referred to as the South Group.
